Chelsea Send Croatian Signing Out on Loan to Holland

English Premier League title hopefuls Chelsea have sent their new Croatian signing to Dutch club NAC Breda on loan.

Former Zadar striker Stipe Perica (18) will head to the one-time Dutch champions for one season on loan. The Croatian U19 international signed a five-year deal with the Stanford Bridge club earlier this month. Perica is currently in Antwerp, which is 30 kilometres from Breda, looking for a new apartment and will train with the side for the first time on Monday.
